Villain: He intercepted the heroine at the beginning, and the protagonists collapsed

51: Grace in pursuit of powerChen Tianming’s thoughts turned. He rubbed his chin with one hand and narrowed his eyes. Soon, some information regarding Qi Lin appeared on his phone.

It couldn’t be helped. This guy was famous too, though not in the Alliance, but in the dark world of the Western Continent.

Although the Chen family’s assets were spread across the entire Blue Planet, their main base was still in the Western Continent, especially the dark world. Even the ranking lists of the dark world were established single-handedly by the Chen family. There were many things within it that the Chen family didn’t even need to investigate; they could provide the most detailed information directly.

”The War God Temple, a newly risen power in the dark world?”

”The War God Temple has four main members and over three thousand subordinates...”

”Holy crap, isn’t this ’The War God Returns’?”

Chen Tianming’s expression became a bit strange. The War God Returns. Three thousand experts of the War God Temple. Starting off by seeing his wife and daughter living in a dog kennel? This was a classic!

As an old bookworm who had transmigrated, he naturally knew these tropes. As soon as he saw the opening, he immediately associated it with the subsequent plot.

Chen Tianming shook his head and refocused his attention!

His gaze swept over the four photos behind it, finally resting on a blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty. Grace!

On her photo, he also saw golden light! In other words, this was also a heroine!

[Name: Grace (Heroine)]

[Age: 24]

[Identity: Fourth killer of the dark world, codename: Phantom]

[Beauty Rating: 95]

[Strength: Mid-stage Grandmaster]

[Special: A fanatical pursuer of power]

”Hmm?” Chen Tianming raised an eyebrow.

This heroine was quite interesting. Among so many heroines, she was the first one with powerful strength! Late-stage Grandmaster. A bit stronger than Ah Qi currently.

Of course, only a little bit stronger. After all, he had even given Ah Qi Spirit Nourishing Pills. If there was still too much of a gap, something would be wrong!

Chen Tianming briefly browsed through Grace’s information. As a celebrity in the dark world, her information was directly included. Of course, the main reason was that it was simple to investigate; many people knew about her.

Grace was the eldest daughter of a gang family in the Western Continent. Ten years ago, due to her parents losing in a gang war, the family was annihilated. The world in the Western Continent was much more chaotic than the Alliance.

No matter what, in the Alliance, at least things like gangs didn’t exist openly. But in the Western Continent, gangs were legal! Therefore, situations like Grace’s, where gang shootouts frequently led to one side being wiped out, were quite common.

Grace witnessed her parents’ death. After escaping, her mental state seemed to have developed issues. Five years ago, due to some chance encounters, she obtained an ancient martial arts inheritance and entered the dark world.

Relying on her powerful talent, she cultivated to the Grandmaster realm and slaughtered the gang that had killed her parents, avenging her family’s destruction. From that day on, she was considered somewhat famous in the dark world. As for meeting Qi Lin afterward, that was naturally another story...

”Because her family was slaughtered, she became mentally unstable and had an abnormal pursuit of powerful strength...”

”It was precisely because of this that she joined the War God Temple...”

Chen Tianming felt he had roughly reconstructed the situation at that time. Even if there were some errors, they shouldn’t be too significant. Unfortunately, Grace was still at the War God Temple in the Western Continent and showed no signs of returning.

”I should focus my attention on Qu Huaixuan instead...”

He reached out and rubbed his chin. As various pieces of information integrated in his mind, a plan targeting the Son of Destiny soon appeared in his thoughts...

Charm Bar.

”Su Chen, Su Chen?”

”Ah, ah?” Su Chen, who was in a daze, finally raised his head.

”I’m sorry, I was distracted...”

The middle-aged man looked at him with some dissatisfaction. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he couldn’t help but say: ”Don’t blame me for saying too much, but you have been quite out of it lately...”

”The higher-ups have told me several times that they want to fire you, and I’ve blocked it every time. If you continue like this, even if I step in, it won’t be of any use.”

Su Chen stood up awkwardly and promised repeatedly that he would adjust himself, only then managing to see the man off.

”Sigh...” Su Chen couldn’t help but let out a sigh. Ever since he returned from the hospital last time, he would think about that scene from back then from time to time...

”No!” Su Chen gritted his teeth. This couldn’t go on! With his mind constantly occupied by past events, he couldn’t get anything done!

Just as he was struggling with this, a commotion suddenly broke out. Su Chen looked up and saw that the people who were originally working at the bar entrance were now all gathered there.

Among them was the usually lazy bar owner who looked down on everyone. At this moment, he was respectfully bowing and scraping beside a figure. No, not one person. It was two people!

Su Chen was behind the crowd and couldn’t see clearly. However, as they walked into the bar and the crowd dispersed, he finally saw clearly who had come to the bar.

”Chen Tianming!”

The moment Su Chen saw him, he was slightly startled, and then his eyes quickly turned red! The guy who snatched away ”his woman”! He would recognize him even if he turned into ashes!

However, when he saw the person beside him, he froze. The person beside him was not Dong Qingyun from before, but another woman! A woman who was not inferior to Dong Qingyun!

”This guy is done ruining Dong Qingyun, and now he wants to ruin other women!”

Su Chen felt that he wasn’t someone who liked to meddle in other people’s business, but at this moment, he was so jealous that he wanted to rush in front of the other party and expose Chen Tianming! Why?

[...]

”Hmm?” Chen Tianming glanced imperceptibly at Su Chen, who was trembling with anger in the crowd, and a cold sneer curled the corner of his lips.

Just at this moment, Chi Wange, who was beside him, also felt a prying gaze. She frowned slightly and subconsciously looked around. However, her cultivation was still too weak; she was currently only a Martial Artist. She could only sense that someone was peering with ill intent, unable to perceive the specific target like Chen Tianming.

Chen Tianming glanced at Su Chen, who had been startled and was sneakily averting his gaze to start wiping a glass, and couldn’t help but chuckle secretly. He was acting quite well!

Afterward, acting as if he knew nothing, he looked at Chi Wange beside him and asked deliberately: ”What’s wrong?”

Chi Wange sensed for a moment, but did not feel the gaze in the crowd again. She shook her head. ”It’s nothing...”

Perhaps she had sensed it wrong, or maybe it was just those fanatical pursuers like before. After putting this thought aside, Chi Wange followed Chen Tianming into a private room on the second floor.
